That's awesome, my old 120y work car had 260 and was fun as, good to see how e85 goes, we don't have good fuel where I'm from so thinking meth injection to get the safe power. Be good to see what gains you get. Keep up the good work

I heard that Goleby's Parts guy is awesome Is that true? ;)

When you get over all the homosexual urges that sexy mullet causes he is a good bloke.

 

The Rolla finally got on E85 this arvo, free power is so good

Had a good weekend at POWERCRUISE alot of fast cars out there had a few issues killed another CAS and when I pulled it to replace I noticed the locating lug on the front of the cam snapped off so a good excuse for sone big cams

Looks like a fun car!

 

You'll be surprised how much a set of big cams unleash the fury! A GZE I built with the same turbo makes 300rwkw on 32psi with a set of 300+deg cams. But thats a 98 fuel engine with a water/meth spray to help things.

So I'd imagine, with the 200cc extra capacity and E85 fuel, 300rwkw should be quite obtainable with some smaller cams and a bit less boost. Good luck to any of those cars you raced at powercruise then!! Haha

Yeah I'd think I'd should gain alot as the head is a JHH engineering street port head so will love a set of sticks to use the better flowing head. I'd think a good 40+ hp I'm thinking 272 with as large a lift as I can go and still retain hydraulic lifters. And I'm also in need of a new gearbox as you might be able to hear the shifts are very slow from 2nd to 3rd so maybe time for an auto.

Picked up a little early Chrissy present for myself yesterday, a fully built trimatic,bellhousing adapter and a dominator 5500 converter. Time to step it up a bit and go fast. Early in the new year I'll get it fitted along with some cams and maybe a new computer/dash

Some more early Christmas presents, had to take advantage of some cheap Goleby's Parts items and bought a new turbo, sexy 6Boost manifold,external gate (45mm or some shit like that) and a set of 270deg Cams

auto, yep now we're getting serious, my favorite update.

Changing a lot of things on the rolla, getting ready for Queensland Drag Week changed my mind on the garret turbo and bought a Precision 5558 instead chose a .48 rear housing in the hope of getting good response. Dropped a block off at JHH early this week to get modified and machined.

 

Got myself some new gauges a new wideband, trans temp and a fuel lvl gauge as mine has been playing up.

A GPS sender to convert my speedo to gps based so I don't have to worry about recalibrating it with wheel changes and diff gear changes.

A new set of diff gears (3.45) as I previously was crossing the line over the quarter on the limiter (8000rpm) in 4th(1:1 ratio) and my trimatics top gear is the same.

All the parts to build a new 3" stainless exhaust and plumb back the wastegate and vband couplings

Pro ratchet shifter and a brand new Crank Angle Sensor

A new upgraded s13 ARE radiator

I'm currently pulling the diff out to get the gears changed and servicing the brakes while I wait for my short motor to be finished.

Just got my diff back from the mechanics that installed the diff gears. It needed an overhaul as all the bearings looked a bit crap and he found this!!!!! So I'm currently tracking down a new axle to get machined then ill order my tail shaft this week starting to feel like I'm getting somewhere

I have my tailshaft from the 30 Two Door if you might be interested, i can measure it,

 

Unless you are after a more robust unit of course

I'll just get one made, thanks for the offer though want to make it beefy

hey mate, get a billet axle for it, cut axles are not real strong. being an r31 diff you should (hopefully) have one factory axle and one that is a cut and re-spline. You should be ok with the factory one, but at least replace the cut down one with billet with your amount of powers. Call altra nine in caboolture he is really good, approx 400-500 for one axle i think. He also does tailshafts, full cro-mo whatever you want.

Yeah was just talking to a mate this morning about going billet. yes 1 factory 1 cut
